Atoms, Molecules, and Ions, Oh My!
Atoms are everywhere and in everything you can see. The computer, phone, or tablet you are using to access this assignment is made of atoms. Even YOU are made up of atoms! In this assignment, you will highlight the role of one atom, one molecule, and one ion and their functions in the human body.
Atoms, molecules, and ions are distinctively different. The way elements combine shows you that they are made of atoms. For example, it is possible to make two gases from carbon and oxygen: one gas is a poison (CO), while the other gas is not (CO2). It takes exactly twice as much oxygen to turn the carbon into the nonpoisonous gas as the poisonous gas. Every molecule of the nonpoisonous gas contains two atoms of oxygen (and one atom of carbon), while every molecule of the poisonous gas contains one atom of oxygen (and one atom of carbon).
Select one atom, one molecule, and one ion that are present in the human body.
